Old folk names for the hawthorn include ‘cuckoo’s bread-and-cheese’, ‘cheese-and-bread tree’, and ‘May bread-and-cheese bush’, from the young spring leaves once eaten. They don’t taste of bread and cheese—more fresh, and slightly nutty. Have you ever tried them? #FolkloreThursday

Gathered from Carlyon Bay in Cornwall, these shells and stones show the hand of tide and time. Hearts, spirals and shifting patterns emerge from the sand, each piece carrying a fragment of the sea’s long story.

There’s neuroscientific evidence that looking at beautiful things, esp. plants & pausing to take in the details can alleviate stress & lift mood. Found these in the garden just now-they’re in a pale blue Victorian ink bottle. Pause to give your brain a small rest 🧠🌿

Eeryone on ODSP deserves to receive the Canada Disability Benefit, no exceptions. Too many people have fallen through the cracks because of tight restrictions. It’s time for real inclusion and a benefit that reaches everyone on disability automatically. No forms, no fuss.

The great province of Ontario deserves a government with a real vision and real results. That's what I'm fighting to build.

Mental health doesn’t exist in a vacuum. When rent is secure, bills are paid, and the fridge is full, suddenly a lot of “issues” get quieter. Pretending money doesn’t affect mental health is a privilege most people can’t afford!

Protest the Ford government and his local MPPs this Saturday, March 28 across Ontario.

Elon Musk just explained how Starlink moves the GDP of entire nations. The formula is so simple it should embarrass every development agency on the planet. Musk: “GDP is a function of average productivity per person.” Productivity per person goes up. GDP goes up. That is the whole equation. Everything else is decoration. And connectivity is the single largest lever on Earth for pushing that number. Musk: “If you don’t have access to the internet, or it’s too expensive or low bandwidth, you cannot access the MIT lessons and you can’t sell the goods and services that you produce.” No internet means no global knowledge. No global markets. No ability to sell to anyone beyond your village or learn from anyone outside of it. The penalty is total. And it has nothing to do with the person serving it. There is a child alive right now who is as intelligent as anyone who has ever walked the halls of MIT. She does not know it. Nobody around her knows it. Because the coordinates of her birth have no connectivity. No library. No signal. No link to the world that would show her what she is. She will grow old inside a ceiling that geography built for her. Not because of talent. Not because of effort. Because of a satellite that had not been launched yet. Musk: “Internet connectivity is certainly a candidate for one of the things that would do more to lift people out of poverty than anything else.” Traditional infrastructure takes decades. Fiber has to be laid. Towers have to be built. Permits have to be approved. Capital has to be attracted to regions that cannot attract it. Starlink bypasses all of it from orbit. No cables. No permits. No waiting for a government to prioritize your village. A dish goes up. Isolation ends. Someone who could not access a textbook yesterday downloads MIT’s entire curriculum today. Someone who could only sell to neighbors starts selling to the planet tomorrow. That is not an upgrade. That is a different life. Musk: “Starlink will actually move the GDP of countries. Like it’s gonna be that kind of thing.” He said it like a feature update. But read it again. Move the GDP of countries. Not a company’s revenue. Not an industry’s output. The gross domestic product of nations. Shifted by one constellation. The telecom industry spent decades deciding which regions were profitable enough to connect. The rest were written off. Starlink does not make that calculation. It covers the planet. Every farmer. Every welder. Every kid with a clear view of the sky. The minds that will cure diseases, solve energy, and build things we cannot yet name are already alive. They are already thinking. They have no signal. Starlink is the first technology in human history that can reach them at the speed of deployment instead of the speed of bureaucracy. And when those minds come online, they will not change their own lives. They will change the trajectory of the species. That is what Musk actually built. Not a telecom company. The largest unlock of human potential ever launched from a single network.

Cannabis essential oil dramatically relieves MS-like pain! When given through the nose, the essential oil: Reduced pain (both heat/cold and touch sensitivity) Improved movement and balance Reduced signs of depression and anxiety In the nervous system, it: Protected the myelin sheath (the coating around nerves) Reduced inflammation and tissue damage Calmed overactive immune cells (microglia) and shifted them toward an anti-inflammatory state Restored a healthy balance between pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory signals (IL-17 and IL-10) Link in the comments 👇

Nothing like a billion-dollar grocery corporation asking broke people at the till to solve child hunger. I’m trying to save 50 cents. You made billions. YOU donate. If I give, it’ll be directly to the people who need it, not through a corporation I have a hard time trusting.

Berries are the BEST natural source of anthocyanins, compounds with antioxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds that benefit heart health. Here the 7 berries richest in anthocyanins.

In 1966, they gave a group of engineers LSD to try solve 𝘶𝘯𝘴𝘰𝘭𝘷𝘢𝘣𝘭𝘦 problems. Stanford & Hewlett-Packard each brought their hardest, most challenging problems. Then they gave 27 engineers, scientists and architects 100ug of LSD each. The results: a new conceptual model of the photon, a redesigned freeway entrance, a mathematical theorem, a new space probe, a shopping plaza. Reviewed & accepted by their employers. Published in a peer-reviewed journal. Then the government banned LSD research entirely. The study worked. That was apparently the problem.

Could CBD be the key to slowing Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s & other brain diseases? CBD can: Reduce abnormal protein clumping Lower oxidative stress Decrease brain inflammation Help slow down damage in diseases like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s CBD has also shown benefits in other brain-related conditions, such as: Epilepsy Depression Anxiety Schizophrenia Link in the comments 👇
